If it is present, remove it, regenerate the lockfile with the project's package manager, and replace whatever it was used for.\n3. List any CI runners, developer machines or containers that installed it, so their secrets can be rotated.\n4.

The npm account amel10 published ai-workshop-radio-lambda and 9 similar packages within two minutes on 2026-09-30, all with the same setup.js.\n\nThe package declares a `preinstall` lifecycle script (`node setup.js`) that runs automatically on `npm install`. setup.js collects installer-identifying data — `os.hostname()`, `os.userInfo().username`, `process.cwd()`, `process.platform`, `process.arch`, Node version, and the configured npm registry — and POSTs it together with a hardcoded static token to `https://s85r5k14qk.execute-api.us-east-1.amazonaws.com/prod/hook`. The package's advertised functionality is a trivial add-two-numbers utility that has no legitimate need for host reconnaissance or outbound network activity at install time. The package name (`ai-workshop-radio-lambda`) and implausibly high version (`100.0.0`) are consistent with a dependency-confusion lure designed to win resolution against an internal package of the same name.","ecosystems":["npm"],"exploits":{"exploitdb":null,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":null,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":null,"nuclei":null,"refs":[],"tier":null},"has_fix":false,"headline":"Malicious code in ai-workshop-radio-lambda (npm)","id":"MAL-2026-17429","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"malicious","links":{"ecosystem":"npm","product":null,"products":[],"type":null,"year":"2026"},"n_packages":1,"n_references":null,"packages":[{"ecosystem":"npm","fixed":[],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"ai-workshop-radio-lambda","purl":"pkg:npm/ai-workshop-radio-lambda","source":"MAL-2026-17429"}],"products":null,"published":"2026-09-30","related":[],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"Apache-2.0","name":"OpenSSF Malicious Packages","prefix":"MAL"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":null,"updated":null,"vendors":null},"summary":null,"url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/MAL-2026-17429/"}
